The Grahams

Carrying The Torch

by The Grahams
The Grahams

Biografía:

Three school mates, Clarke Finn (drums), Matt Grave (bass), Tim Emanuelle (guitar), met up with Wil Ridley (vocals) to give a new band a try. The name "The Grahams" stuck after trying to come up with a name for the band; it was jokingly suggested as a reference to an infamous maths teacher.
The Warrnambool (Australia) rock-funk group plays in pubs and other events around the town, with a mixture of originals and covers. Some of their most notable songs are "Hit & Miss", "Montage", "Day of Roses", and "SOLDier for War".

[Intro]

G - C - G
G - C - G

[Verse 1]
G C G
She walks the halls in a white lace
G C G
A glass of Daddy's bourbon in her hand
G C G
Daddy's not around to drink it anyway
G C G
He's planted six feet under Alabama land

[Chorus]
G C G
My brother wore the uniform
G C G
My mother waited out on the porch
G C G
My lover played that fluglehorn
G C G
Back when he was carrying the torch

[Verse 2]
G C G
She never listens to the radio
G C G
She listens to the music playing in her head
G C G
When there's a party she doesn't care to go
G C G
She stays at home and looks at pictures instead

[Chorus]
G C G
One of her brother in the uniform
G C G
One of her mother out on the porch
G C G
Photo of her lover playing flugelhorn
G C G
Back when he was carrying the torch
G C G
Back when he was carrying the torch...

[Bridge]
Am
Mama never liked his music anyway
C G
Daddy never liked that St. Louis look
Am
They sent him back by Greyhound way...
C D
With twenty-five bucks... and the holy book...

[Instrumental]
C - Em
C - Em
C - G - D

[Verse 3]
G C G
So now she sits alone and waits for nights
G C G
And sings a melody from days gone by
G C G
After thirty years it feels alright
G C G
No one left even wonders why

[Chorus]
G C G
She lost that old uniform
G C G
She never sits out on the porch
G C G
But she's still got that flugelhorn
G C G
With no one left carrying the torch
G C G
No one left carrying the torch...
G C G
No one left carrying the torch...
